I haven’t seen the movie yet but Mark did watch it though back in February 2016 and loved it.

“The film is in Arabic with English subtitles and was really fun to watch, it had violence and lots of humor throughout and it never slowed down. The acting was fantastic and the plot absurd but realistic at the same time. Even the ending was great although I’m not sure if anyone other than Lebanese would get it.”

The movie is rated 7.8 on IMDb and was nominated for Best Film at the London Film Festival 2015.
